Steve Ballmer's Nightmare Is Coming True - Yahoo! Finance
9. The Xbox was never going to make up the slack, and Microsoft can no longer afford to keep investing in it.
In a year of relative gloom, Microsoft's Xbox has become a big bright spot for the company. Kinect is great technology, people are still buying the console, and it's been a great entry point for Microsoft to take over the living room. But, for a company like Microsoft, Xbox isn't enough. Microsoft had $21 billion in operating income last year. The Entertainment and Devices division, which is home to the Xbox had $364 million in operating income. So, as nice as Xbox is, it's not going to be enough to boost Microsoft if the rest of the business collapses.

Please leave gaming forever. They've held back console gaming enough. Sell in game music to sony and let them carry the torch of console excellence into the future. I wish theyd just scrap xbox 720

So all of their profit is basically cats paying for Xbox Live???

They only netted 360 million from the division that houses the Xbox? That's insane. :mindblown:

A fanboy would want to believe that, so basically Stan is telling a bunch of people to kill themselves. At least let the hackers steal there CC info again before they take your advice :steviej:
I didn't even mean to do that!! :ohhh:
Now, if you look at the actual article it says the xbox is the only BRIGHT SPOT for the company
The operating income is revenue AFTER you add in all the money they spent.
As in, TOTAL PROFIT. Nearing 1/2billion. Thats a loss :leon:
Cuz sony makes LESS off the playstation brand, and pays more per each. If M$ is doing bad, the gaming industry as a whole is doing bad
Cuz nobody is doing BETTER. Don't say it, prove it with a link if you gonna scream nintendo which sold about 17systems last year

:duck:


So it was Xbox fault that pre launch Sony promised shyt like MGS4 was gonna be a launch title but it didn't drop till like 3 years later? One of the many promises Sony made that either flopped or never ever saw the day of life?

:bryan: at home and does anyone still play DC Universe :damn:
